Re: Colts Cuts 8/31/12

Ravens also cut NT Baptiste, another rookie, who Stampede Blue is suggesting we look at on waiver wire. No question we've gotta get another NT. If we're willing to go the FA route, sounds like there's a few good CBs out there. O-line options? Do we have cash to be active with vet cuts (FAs)?

Re: Colts Cuts 8/31/12

Colts checked out Kitchen in the combine, so there was atleast interest in him at one point. I also think we need a DB, I'd like to see a talented SS in a trade for Freeney. I just think Freeney has been struggling and to be honest, I don't even think it's fair for him as his talent is pass rushing in the 4-3. I love Freeney, but it is time I think. I don't know enough about the rookies to know who is the best available as there are just to dang many, like 700 got cut. I just hope they can strengthen the defense so teams won't be able to score at will. A strong defense will allow Colts offense to stay in the games.

Re: Colts Cuts 8/31/12

So far I'm really liking Grigson. Hopefully he can find a couple guys on waivers that will help.

Yeah, I agree overall. The only thing I think can be questioned is some of the FA/trade DBs. I have not been particularly impressed with the likes of King, Lindsey (IR, no?), Vaughn, Johnson. Even if Davis pans out, I'm not sure how much quality depth we've added behind he and Powers.

Re: Colts Cuts 8/31/12

What do people think as far as the WR situation? MIght we pursue some of the vet cuts...would require more financial commitment that waiver claims. But, with the Collie situation and Avery's injury history you've got to wonder a little. Did the hit to the head Adams suffered v. Bengals amount to anything?

Yeah, Gordy looked like one lost mo fo the other day.

I've never played corner except in backyard games so I really don't know how much scheme can effect that. However he seemed oblivious to where the ball, or defender is. Those seem like basic skills that transfer in any system.

Re: Colts Cuts 8/31/12

Maybe some people to look at. I feel you should get the best available players, but I also think we especially need to fine O-line people, LBs, and DBs. I think if we could find a good pick up in each section, that would be a successful waiver wire period.

Don't ask Marvin Harrison what he did during the bye week. "Batman never told where the Bat Cave is," he explained.
